Fonoti to the portal

This must mean Gillman is staying, I assume. And/or that the true frosh is better than Finoti, and he doesn't want to be second fiddle too long. Good luck to him. Hope he gets his dream.
Agreed. On an optimistic note it makes me think Eli is staying and definitely liked what I saw from Jones. This one still stings as Fonoti was a really promising player and I though might fill Rocker's shoes well.
 
I hope all of these
I wish I knew the reason Fonoti entered the portal. This offense was a great match for his talents and would get more involved as time went on. I think he is making a mistake.

While I hope all of our kids entering the portal do great, including Fonoti, Wolfe, Amick, Loud, Wilkinson, etc., and some of them are indeed making good decisions, my fear is for most, they are being egged on by greedy agents, and 1-2-3 years from now when they are buried on a depth chart and not playing and attending a school they don't like, or worse yet, not playing and working a dead-end job at McDonald's, Burger King or Wal Mart, and not in school with no college degree, and they end up watching the GRIZ and their old teammates and coaches play a meaningful game on ESPN; they are really going to regret this decision while their former greedy agent has abandoned them and disappeared. I am afraid 😨 most of our kids are going to be in the latter category and not in the former. !!!

Good luck to them, I hope they really kill it at their new schools, and it's portal huntin' season for GRIZ great, NFL veteran, and our expert recruiting coordinator Justin Green 💚 and staff--we have to move on from our kids in the portal and we will. !!!
 
I think Hoops nailed this one. Either he thought Gillman was leaving and he was gonna be the guy next year, or Jones was about to pass him up on the depth chart and he didn’t wanna be the third guy again. I thought Jones really popped in the minimal action he saw. If it’s him and Gillman next year, we’re in good hands!
